Romantic novelist E.J. Pugh has been nominated for a Lady, a coveted award from the American Romance Writers' Association. The convention is to be held in nearby Austin, Texas so E.J. is going. It should have been fun and informative. It should never have resulted in the dead body found at the bottom of the stairs. After six years of peace, E.J. is again thrown into a crime scene, where the big questions assault her: why, and who did it? And whom can she trust?
